Summary

Hypotrichosis-11 (HYPT11) is a form of isolated alopecia characterized by diffuse and progressive loss of hair starting in childhood. Affected individuals typically present with sparse to absent scalp hair, and may have brittle or absent eyebrows and eyelashes as well as sparse body hair, without hair shaft anomalies (summary by Pan et al., 2021). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of nonsyndromic hypotrichosis, see HYPT1 (605389). [from OMIM]
